Plant cells have several structures not found in other eukaryotes. In particular, organelles called chloroplasts allow plants to capture the energy of the Sun in energy-rich molecules; cell walls ...

The image sequences provide new insights into how this cell structure forms, which could lead to innovations in plant-derived products such as renewable biofuels. Cell walls are made mostly of ...

In a groundbreaking study, researchers at Rutgers University-New Brunswick have captured continuous, 24-hour images of cellulose synthesis, the process by which plant cell walls are built, using ...

Plant cell biology is the study of all aspects of plant cells. It is particularly concerned with structure, growth, division, signalling, differentiation and death of plant cells. By inducible and ...

A research team has uncovered the mechanism and underlying reason behind the transformation of residual cells into epidermal ... valuable insights into plant survival strategies and growth ...

Department of Biochemistry and Cell Biology, State University of New York, Stony Brook, NY, United States Tobamovirus is a large group of positive-sense, single-stranded RNA viruses that cause ...

Japanese cell and module manufacturer Toyo Solar has begun production at its 2GW solar cell processing plant in Ethiopia. By the end of April, the company said it expects to ship more than 80MW of ...

Plant vs Animal Cells: Lysosomes Lysosomes are membrane-bound organelles that are found within cells. Their main role is to break down proteins, acids, large molecules, and unwanted materials ...

Hydrogen fuel cells convert hydrogen and oxygen into electricity, heat, and water. Because this conversion process doesn't generate any carbon emissions, fuel cells are seen as a valuable source of ...

The 2 GW facility, located in the central Ethiopian city of Hawassa, is scheduled to deliver more than 80 MW of cells by the end of April. Toyo said the plant is on course to be fully operational ...
